Wishing you all the best of luck, make it back-to-back big karls.

Up in Brisbane for work, so apologies, would have loved to have been there.

Don't think i would have been pulling on the boots anyway, as i'm actually less fit than past forum games. Nearly died just playing nintendo wii the other day!

Make sure to bring water.

Rollinson_65, unfortunately you'll have to inform the sainters that neither of my mates can make it any more, one is going to Sydney, the other to Tasmania and won't be returning 'til Sunday night. Not our loss though, so not all bad news!

Cheers

Toot.

this topic (how hard do I hit the bloke?) was covered in the article on the last match against talkingcarlton (see articles on the main board) and there is not much more to say...

I think I missed that conversation... it's as hard as humanly possible right? ;)

It would be fantastic to have more supporters and more helpers at the game today so please consider coming along. Also, if anyone lives in the vicinity of Gosch's Paddock, it would be appreciated if you could check the condition of the ground to ensure there are no gaping holes on the flanks today. It makes it very difficult to plan match tactics when there's a real chance that your half back line might be buried deep in some underground chasm as a result of an avalanche of collapsing soil (and boys, please remember, there's no insurance or liability accepted by anyone associated with the game today).

Freak seems to have gotten into the spirit of things in so far as his pre match preparation is concerned by getting home at close to 5am on the morning of the game. Hopefully, someone can wake him up to ensure that he makes it to the ground on time.

Fortunately, the coaching panel has assumed the discipline of the Trappist monks and has spent many hours preparing for the event in silence, solitude and sobriety (ah the sacrifices we have to make for the red and the blue cause).

I won't dazzle you with any science this morning but gentlemen, in the words of Ivan from Ivanhoe we do need some discipline today. Redleg and I were both disappointed at one aspect of our game against Tanking Carlton a few weeks ago and that was in your total and utter lack of respect for your opponents. Specifically, I refer to that little bloke who played on the half forward flank. OK, he was a 14-year-old dwarf but he was on his own enough times and he did kick the goal that nearly cost us the game. Just because he's barely 4 feet tall, it doesn't mean you have to ignore him or the instructions from the coach to man up. Same goes for your opponents today. Be aware of who they are and where they are at all times.

Thank you.

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to
